September 26th lesson

Dear students, Welcome back to Digital Presentation. Today is an important lesson as regards the rest of the semester, because you will have a say on what you will be doing. There are two basic plans: either follow the teacher's plan, which may mean less preparation for you, or have student groups decide the schedule, which may mean more thinking and preparation for you, but also more control of the content. Which would you prefer? The teacher's plan: Five of the following will be your presentation theme. The class may choose which five. Each presentation will be worth 10 points. (You will also have a mid-term, and a final presentation). 1) Communication 2) Education 3) Environment 4) Fashion and Design 5) Gender 6) Globalisation 7) Human Rights 8) Language 9) Media 10) Society 11) Technology 12) Our planet Earth The assessment criteria will be the same as usual: Content new interesting researched critical thinking Delivery sufficient eye contact

July 18th lesson

Dear students, Today is your final presentation assignment, which is worth twenty points. You should speak for between five and six minutes. Your teacher will select students at random, so everyone should be ready today even though there is not enough time for all to deliver a presentation. (Failure to be ready on this day will incur penalty points). For details of the assessment criteria, see the July 11th post. After you have finished, please upload your presentation to the private blog. Kind regards, Chris Elvin
